    Hello everyone! I am newbie here still and to webdesign as a whole.

    Could you all look at my forum and tell me some suggestions? I am still working on it along with a website but I want to make sure the forum comes up first.

    BTW, I am a unoriginal un-artistic computer geek, so I had to use a standard style and I have yet to make any custom banners and graphics. Please ignore these for now!

    Nice and pleasant forum. But the title is not so attractive, try some other design.

    Thank you for your replies!

    I am working on titles and fixing a PHPBB SEO plugin, so if anyone is seeing 404's etc I am working on it!
    Edit: Fixed

    gray text and black background is not a good combination from visibility point of view. change gray to white. nice template. attractive logo and some college related images like students, books, campus etc should be added.

    Thank you all.

    By the way I am having problems with redirects directly to the forum, so the website being displayed is another project and it isn't exactly in the shape I want it to be.

    There is not much to review the forum looks very generic, you have to customize it
    by adding a logo and some graphics before I can review it.
